Kevin Smith offers insight to UCF's young backs on injury prevention

The best advice Kevin Smith offered UCF running backs this season has more to do with cold tubs than quick cuts.

Preserving the health of a running back is paramount for any college football team, but it's especially important for the Knights, who have already cycled through five running backs half-way through the 2015 season.

"It's just unfortunate," Smith said of UCF's rash of injuries. "Whenever these guys come over and want to talk about what they can do, I always try to share some advice and you just have to do maintenance on your body. Although you may not be hurt, you go in the training room to do injury prevention.
